Seeing as Sky have secured a long term deal with Super League does this mean we have to listen to those idiots for another 7 years icon_razz.gifRAY:

I've never known a pair of sports commentators about whom there is as much general ill-feeling across the board. These guys may think they eat and breathe RL, but they do a lot of damage to the game. Their small-minded parochialism is as much a talking-point these days as the action on the pitch, their negativity and stupidity (Paul Wellens - "the best player on Earth", Keiron Cunningham should be beatified - for passing from dummy-half!, the inane in-jokes, the Stevo word bingo, the utter lack of professionalism when it comes to personal preferences, etc) has made a mockery of the sport.

So many fans I know won't watch Sky's coverage these days, or will only do so with reservations.

We'd honestly be better with that twonk Mick Morgan. At least he was openly biased and unapologetically ignorant.

Please, someone get rid.

I actually don't mind commentators "supporting" a team, I just wish they were open about it. Let all the commentators be open about it, and if things go wrong, be ripped into for it. It works very well for a lot of American sport and at least it brings a banter element as opposed the current poorly veiled "unbiased" commentary that goes on now.

I was watching the Grand Final again recently and thought Eddie did a good job. He can be a good commentator when he sticks to the game, Stevo on the other hand needs getting rid of. He's no idea about how the game is played anymore and provides nothing more than the odd daft remark.

Also they had Eddie Stevo Clarke Carney McRae and Cummings doing commentary/in game analysis, surely this is overkill and they need to spread them around, in pretty much every other sport they have a commentator and one colour analyst. We have 6 people talking over each other.

They pick em Charlie, we don't... I don't care where they are from, so long as they do the job well, and present RL in a positive light.

Your comment may say more about your own personal bias, rather than the subject in hand.. icon_smile.gif

I genuinely don't mind them. Are there better out there? Yes, but to me it's all pantomime.

There time is running out and they both know it and despite the odd annoyance I do find them amusing.

I will be sad to see them go as realistically they are the team I have grown up with other than Ray French.

One thing is for sure when they do go they need to take "Baz and Tez" et al with them.

The thought of Bill Arthur and one of those cronies taking over does fill me with dread.
